Case Study

In an effort to claim $400 million in legal fees and expenses resulting from a civil suit concerning its prescription drug, OxyContin, Purdue Pharma L.P. sued its insurance company, Steadfast Insurance, for lack of payment - launching the largest attorneys' fee dispute litigation in U.S. history. Stuart Maue successfully used an Oracle Business Intelligence solution to perform the large-scale audit of the fees and expenses incurred during the trial.

Stuart Maue, a legal auditing firm, specializes in the review and auditing of legal bills resulting from complex litigation, such as in the case of Purdue Pharma L.P. versus Steadfast Insurance. To be better prepared for the vast amount of electronic data involved in audits of this size, Stuart Maue realized that its IT foundation required a significant upgrade to meet the case's rigorous demands.
